I face the same situation a year ago.  Both SWCK and KCIS admitted my daughter.  Eventually I chose to put her in KCIS because it teaches Chinese and it's a through train school.  I am rather scared by going through the whole application process for Primary 1 again....
Nonetheless, SWCK is also a very good school, teachers are caring. I have friends whose two kids studied there and were then admitted to SIS.  The school also have very good relationship with ESF Bradbury.

請問你小朋友係幾多月出世的呢?

bigears

July, why ask?

我小朋友都係7月出世因為SWCK係計月份的, 即係年頭個D開始收, 唔讀有位先叫下半年個D
所以我睇下我女有冇機會入
KCIS同SWCK我都好想我女入到
SWCK仲要係基~督教....同我地既信仰一樣

My experience is you kept on calling the admission office of SWCS (I forgot the name of the lady), show your commitment and sincerity and she is very helpful.

I also like KCIS because it teaches Chinese and it's a through train school. No worry to Primary & Secondary School.

In my case, I received the admission call or letter from SWCK first.  A few months later, also received KCIS's admission letter.

my daughter is in upper k3 at SWCK, effectively year 1 in IS.  They have hired an ex-ESF year 1 teacher to teach the class.  When and if she starts in the new SWCK primary school in sept 2012, she will be in year 2.

I don't quite know how the curriculum runs yet.  there will be a briefing later this month.  However, I can tell you that there is close to no Chinese.  There is half hour everyday, but the Chinese teacher speaks English most of the time.  I do Chinese tutoring at home with my daughter at home mostly, and thank goodness, she is doing OK, if not exceptional.  Not on par with some tough LS, but she can recognize close to 300 characters and can write about 20+.  So if you go to SWCK, you must do a lot of work with your child at home in order not to lose out on the Chinese.
